What I particularly like about this ad its its minimalist simplicity and lack of any real attempt to enhance what&#039;s promised with a decent drawing that looks like it might be more than a pile of toilet rolls and some tissue paper.

In an act of marketing genius or insane deception, depending on the way you look at it, bags of extremely uninteresting dormant plankton were sold as a fabulous alien eco-system. there was even a TV show spinoff, featuring them.
